Blockchain Technology Integrated Electronic Vote Casting System

Published: 11 August 2022 Publication History

Abstract

Existing voting systems are unable to assure security of an individual’s vote, and keep elections free from biased results due to temperament by malicious people. Traditional electoral process is vulnerable in regards to security aspects and is usually very time consuming. These cause threats to the important characteristics of election such as- transparency, privacy of voters & democracy. Our team proposes to remove these inconveniences by implementing blockchain technology into the voting scheme. This technology will make the voting process decentralized, keeps each vote secured and counted whilst providing privacy to voters, and will also save time and resources. Using Node JS, cryptography algorithms our proposed system was built. Additionally, challenges of the system are addressed and still being improved using potential solutions.
